Founder Matt Britton remains on as Non-Executive Chairman as Suzy enters its next chapter backed by fresh capital
NEW YORK, NY — September 22, 2026 — Suzy, the AI-powered insights platform, today announced that Bryan Silverman has been named Chief Executive Officer, alongside an additional round of funding led by H.I.G. Growth Partners. Silverman succeeds founder Matt Britton, who will transition to Non-Executive Chairman and continue to shape the company's long-term vision.
Silverman joined Suzy as a Sales Development Representative nearly 11 years ago and has risen through the company ever since, most recently serving as Chief Operating Officer since January 2024.
"When I started Suzy, our mission was always to help brands make better, faster, more confident decisions with their customer at heart — and that mission still stands. Suzy has grown to help over 400 of the world's largest brands talk to their consumers and make smarter decisions every day. I named her Suzy because I imagined a day when people wouldn't have to do the work themselves anymore; they could just ask Suzy for the insight they needed, and she'd tell them what they need to do to make that decision confidently. That day has come," said Matt Britton, Founder of Suzy. "Bryan has been part of this story since the very beginning, and there's no one better to carry the torch forward."
Silverman's leadership comes as the volume of data available to brands has exploded — sales data, social data, search data, panel data, research data — while clarity has not kept pace. "Our customers have more data today than they've ever had, and yet many of them told us the same thing: they feel more blind to their decisions than they used to, not less," Silverman said. "That's the problem we exist to solve in this next phase of Suzy — not by giving brands one more place to collect data, but by turning everything they know, and everything we know, into the clarity they need to make their next big call with confidence. Suzy has been an incredible research tool for the better part of a decade for hundreds of brands - the next phase of Suzy is meant to build on that foundation."
At the center of that next phase is Suzy herself. Rather than asking brands to interpret dashboards or dig through reports, Suzy is built to know a brand — its category, its history, its consumers, its past decisions — and bring that context to bear the moment a question is asked. The expertise doesn't live in a team of analysts; it lives in Suzy.
The company will use the new funding to continue our AI-first product evolution.
